It's clean and fresh space. Large and open. Very friendly guy greeted me and asked if I needed a run down of what they offer. I was familiar and just ordered. Nice little spot. Not easy to find though. I hope they make it here.

In the old Avalon cafe space! They have a location out in Dearborn, but friends tell me parking in…read moretricky there so excited to have TVC right here in AA!! I stopped in the lunch and just like the Avalon model, you can walk up to order coffee & pastries to go or sit and eat. I opted in sit and eat - expansive menu. I really wanted to try the 5 in 1 pide but they didn't have it yet. So I ordered the: * Mixed Shwarma bowl: chicken & beef with your choice of garlic sauce or hummus. I picked garlic sauce! Good flavor. The meat was a smidge on the drier side but nothing a little baba couldn't fix! REALLY generous portion for lunch! * Baba ganouj: loved the smokiness in this! assuming it's from roasting the eggplant. I had this with crispy pita chips rather than just pita. * Katifi & Baklava - not overly sweet like some Baklava. enjoyed them both! I'll be back for the Shwarma fries and Pide (wont' be available for ~1 month as they're waiting for the oven)! And oh the Dubai latte ha. Vanessa, my server, was friendly and attentive!

Pleased to see a Turkish Village Cafe open up in Ann Arbor! Since it's new, I imagine the current…read moremenu isn't necessarily permanent, but it is immediately interesting to compare the "localization" of this menu against Dearborn's. Perhaps unsurprisingly, there's more casual and fusion-like options in Ann Arbor! My husband and I stopped in for lunch and got the Shawarma Fries and a Sujuk breakfast sandwich (sujuk, eggs, feta, spinach, herbs on choice of bread). Shawarma fries were really yummy! Very flavorful, a generous amount, and I loved the savory slightly tangy orange sauce. The Sujuk sandwich was delicious, even if it didn't look like all that much. I missed the complimentary bread and dips that you'll get in Dearborn, but I'm excited to come back and try more of the Ann Arbor menu! Next time, will want to try more of the classics/traditional options. Beautiful, airy, clean space. Cool to see how they took the old space and really made it their own with some renovations and decor. Lovely and attentive service! The staff all around seem to really care about customers having a great experience. Easy parking in the Fourth & William garage, if you don't mind paying.

I had an idea of what I wanted but once we got inside, I changed my mind. I ordered a green juice and I wasn't disappointed. The wraps looked delicious but they will have to wait for another visit. The staff was very friendly and helpful. My only gripe would be how difficult it was to read the food and drink ingredients on the board . I'm 71 and I could pick out some of the ingredients. I looked for a paper menu but maybe I overlooked them. There is a dining area available . The prices seemed reasonable.

The atmopshere was cozy and inviting. There seemed to be a majority of University of Michigan students here. There's plenty of seating, whether it be couches to smaller tables to (what I remember) one larger table for bigger groups. I'd say the seats at the tables maybe weren't the most comfy though, I do wish they had seat pillows. The drinks did take a while to come out, but it wasn't an issue for me since I was just working. Side note: they even provide feminine hygiene products in the restroom. They also have a printer available. There's a huge parking lot available. Overall, I think this is a great spot to study and work from home, and you should definitely check it out!

I have never had a bad dish here. Vegetarian or not everything has been absolutely delicious!!!!…read more The 3 of us could easily choose our appetizer. IT IS A MUST HAVE!!!!! A shareable platter of garlic bread, vegan basil-cashew pesto, fresh tomato-basil relish, Kalamata olive tapenade and choice of sesame-crusted Goat cheese or house-made almond 'cheese' (Order with almond cheese to be vegan; Substitute gluten-free garlic bread to be gluten free). SERIOUSLY PEOPLE-IT'S A MUST!!! Unlike my sweet sister I try something different every time we come. The three of us had different meals last night. I had a cup of white bean and kale soup. It had diced carrots, onion, celery and sweet potatoes in a delicious broth. So savory and warm, the kale had obviously been rubbed and was as tender as could be. I ordered another appetizer instead of a full meal. I had the General Tso's fresh Cauliflower with a very light tempura batter sprinkled with sesame seeds in a sweet and sour chili sauce-It was the right amount of heat and I found it just right in terms of quantity for my dinner. My sister had the Taco Salad-which she raves about. I have yet to try it, but it looks delicious. Ingredients include; Romaine, fresh corn salsa, black beans, sweet potatoes, avocado, pumpkin seeds, and corn chips, with your choice of Chihuahua cheese or vegan mozzarella, and your choice of sour cream or vegan cucumber ranch, with house made salsa on the side (Choose vegan mozzarella and cucumber ranch to be vegan, Gluten free.) My brother-in-law was the smartest one of all of us as he ordered the restaurant week meal which included appetizer main course, salad & dessert! I'll post the restaurant week menu below. It was fabulous. since it was still happy hour I ordered a Mocktail- Iced Ginger Spritzer Ginger, lemon, agave and soda, on ice. Wow- super ginger forward. He also had a Mocktail: A Solar Blast containing Orange, grapefruit, lime and ginger, on ice. (Mmmmmm-refreshing!) He had the white bean & kale cup of soup. He chose the Gomadore Udon -a beautiful bowl. Brown rice and Udon noodles in a mushroom broth. Silky tofu, mung bean sprouts, carrots, zucchini, green onion and kale. Veggies blanched but still crisp. What a great entrée for a below 0° day. It was finished with a rich sesame Gomodore Sauce. There was a farro grain salad with it. His dessert was a Lavender Lemon Bar which he described as heavenly. No doubt about it- this was an exquisite meal. Our server was great. He stayed on top of everything without being intrusive. The ambience here is subtle and casual. Nice long bar area and plenty of dining space. We called ahead as they will add you to a wait list and we would highly encourage that you do the same. This is a well loved restaurant that has been here nearly forever!!!! Do yourself a favor -if you are in A2 go to the west side and dine here!!
